Go to the Harris forum, and read the story of a very brave Male Harris during this field meet.

Who is the owner of the white tailed Sea Eagle ?? appeared on the pictures.
Stunning bird :supz:

Was fantastic, lots n lots of golden eagles. on page six of that site theres a shot with two deer in , the small one was taken by a female goldie , the larger a little male harris.... I'll post my own soon enough.
Personaly the falcons where more interesting, after a while the hare hawking got a little "samie", no two stoops where ever the same though and the outcome was always a nail biter!

An excellent show of photos. Almost makes me wish I were more sociable, enough to attend field meets.

Almost.... but not quite.

[SakerYZF]

met plenty of unsocial falconers there, but 30p a pint soon brought there socializing standards down and where happy enough to spend time with us pesants:-P photobucket is being slow , i'll upload some more when i can.

Chris,

[BasLouwMan]

Well done Chris, are those two birds yours?

[Afshimo]

Is this a tawny? http://www.oook.cz/events/opocno06/8187.html
its absoluntly amazing for the colouration lol. But those huge eagles take the buiscut. So wish I could have gone ... one year maybe!

:supz: :heart: :supz:

i think it's a juv. imperial eagle
or a imperial x goldie!

[MickeyDredd]

One of the Czech guys certainly breeds Imperials and Imperial hybrids.

great pics of the event,,,,one day love to come over,

[PaulColley66]

Fantastic photos from what looks like a fantastic event. Those eagles - ohh man!

[SakerYZF]

There was a Step x Goldie ... imprint , must have been its first year, its good points where it wanted to kill, had the best responce of any of the birds , however , when on its "return leg" it would attack anyone close enough holding a bird ... how it never hurt anyone i'll never know. It was a liability, it did chase a roe deer for a conciderable distance though, and was impressive on its return, pumping all the way, untill it attacked somone elses eagle on the fist .. jeeez rather him than me:-s

Hi,
I attended the Opocno 2006 Meet and it was a fantastic experience having so many eagles at one meet.The group I joined had brilliant flights and chases throughout the day.The Czech were very friendly and made us all welcome.I'll be planning to go again next year.Photos taken were excellent..
